Hope we get some more sun as the tomatoes are just starting to ripen. A few days heat has kick started the production of courgettes and cucumbers. The sweet pea is racing away and smells fabulous.
Peas have finished and even the mangetout is nearly finished. The broad beans continue to produce and I've shared lbs with all my visitors. I picked the 1st French beans today and they seem to be cropping well.
We've been enjoying all the potato varieties and running dangerously low, ( who can I bribe to get more potato growing space next year?). I was watching Gardener's World last week and Monty Don did feature on testing all his new potatoes. He marked down the floury and cracked skin ones and picked the wet ones. I just had to tweet him and tell him he was wrong and to my joy he replied!
